Yes that is what I meant. I will use the delay next time, right over my head LOL.

@technomancer...
Did you mean this.?,
I used a delay of 10secs in screenshot to give me time for menus to appear when right clicking/navigating.

****I have figured out how to remove shortcuts from left pane "places" in thunar.
Here is how-
1. Open file manager/thunar,
2. Right click on "places".
 A menu opens and you can un-check which ones you wish to remove/hide.
I tried a screen-shot but it loses focus everytime.

Shot in the dark...have you removed the folder the shortcut points to in addition to the shortcut?
Not sure what you mean. I click remove shortcut, is there another place ?
Hi technomancer,

These entries are saved in the file ~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks

After making a backup:
Code: [Select]
cp ~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks ~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks.ori
you can edit the file:
Code: [Select]
leafpad ~/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks
Changes show up immediately in Thunar as soon as you save them. I never had them reappear after a reboot.

Hope that helps :)
I will give this a shot, thank you.

I have not found a topic yet here similar to this issue so here it goes-

In Thunar file manager, on the left pane I added to "places", 5 network shared folders or "shortcuts".
(screenshot is missing folder #1 from trying to remove)
These folders are no longer in use since i have reconfigured my home server.
-I right click and "remove shortcut" and they go away, until the next boot where they reappear.
-I have tried not saving session, disconnected from network and they remain after every boot.
Here is a screenshot- 

Anyone come accross this before ? any suggestions ? I will keep googling......(I'm only finding how to add)
